Katie counts down her top 20 favourite songs of 2021. In another challenging year for everyone, there was no shortage of fabulous tunes to keep us all going – big love to all the artists who released new music. Eight of the songs in numbers 20 to 11 are by Australian artists, one is by a US artist and one is by a Scottish artist. Five are by solo or duo women artists, and two are by woman-fronted bands. Here is the playlist:
20. Make a Baby – The Maes
19. Deep Black Water – Georgia Van Etten
18. Wellerman – Nathan Evans
17. Lonesome Winter Blues – Jessie Monk
16. Canyon – Charm of Finches
